Applied Graphene Materials announced that approval was granted by the European Chemical Agency, ECHA, for a volume threshold of 1 to 10 tons of powder usage per annum of graphene products supplied by individual members of the Graphene REACH registration consortium, of which AGM is a founding member.
Following a rigorous evaluation of the range of graphene materials which each consortium member offers, and completion of the final submission documents to ECHA towards the end of 2020, the successful outcome represents a major milestone for the graphene industry and enables consortium members such as AGM to supply quantities of graphene materials in volume.
The tonnage band registration of 1 to 10 tons p.a. provides confidence in the potential for volume quantity use of graphene materials in the range of applications that consortium members including AGM are pursuing.
"Strategically, we identified the critical importance of regulatory registration to the long-term success of our business and have committed significant resources to achieve this result today," AGM CEO Adrian Potts said. "This registration underpins the effective and safe use of AGM's graphene materials at higher volumes. AGM continues to demonstrate the excellent utility of our graphene products with our customer engagements, and this registration will ensure we can meet our ambitions for larger volume orders as our commercial pipeline continues to develop."
